The company has previously revealed Helio M70, the likely modem component for the chipset, which is compliant with the international 5G NR standard and will support the sub-6GHz frequency band. Without announcing any specifics, MediaTek also said today that it will launch its first 5G-ready SoC in February, at the Mobile World Congress 2019. Supporting Category 12/13 LTE, it promises download speeds in the 600Mbps range, with uploads at up to 150Mbps, significantly slower than the 2Gbps Snapdragon X24 LTE modems found in Qualcomm’s latest SoCs. If there’s a hitch to Helio P90, it’s the modem, which is arriving with last-generation 4G capabilities at the beginning of the 5G era. It has also bumped P90’s GPU from an 800/900MHz Mali G72MP3 to a 970MHz PowerVR GM 9446 and boosted LPDDR4X memory speeds to 1866MHz - changes that should give P90-powered phones noticeable speed advantages in everyday tasks and graphics performance while more modestly improving overall multi-core performance for non-AI computational tasks. On the computational front, P90 will be able to run “the most complex AI apps and tasks while running multiple AI functions at the same time,” notably including support for Google Lens.ĪI isn’t P90’s only upgrade: MediaTek has reconfigured its eight ARM processing cores, moving from four Cortex A53s and four Cortex A73s to two 2.2GHz Cortex A75s and six 2.0GHz Cortex A55s. P90 will also enable real-time face beautification during video recordings, intelligent environmental awareness for improved photo exposures, and the ability to process either a single 48-megapixel image or dual-camera 24+16-megapixel images without missing a beat. While the GMAC numbers are abstract, MediaTek says that the speedy AI will enable secure facial unlocking, full-body AR avatars, and 4 times faster noise reduction for low-light photographs. Collectively, the P90’s AI processors promise 1127 GMACs (giga multiply-accumulates per second) of computing power, up from 240 GMACs in the P70, or 4.6 times greater AI performance than the P70. Using a fusion AI architecture, MediaTek’s second-generation APU adds a custom-built Inference Engine to assist the Tensilica DSP found in the earlier Helio P70. Offering an alternative to Qualcomm’s just-announced Snapdragon 855, Helio P90 similarly focuses on AI improvements that will augment everything from photo and video capture to object recognition and general computation. Today, the company announced an AI-powered 4G smartphone system-on-chip (SoC) called Helio P90 and said it will reveal its 5G SoC at Mobile World Congress 2019 in February. MediaTek may not have the name recognition of larger chipmakers, such as Qualcomm, Intel, Samsung, and Huawei, but its chips are found in nearly a third of mobile phones - largely low- to mid-range Android devices sold in Asia.
